Talking Power windows

Hello All,

First I want to say hello to everyone, this is my first time on a Ford forum, My name is Eli and from Boston, Ma. This question is for my mom's Explorer, I drive a 05 Pontiac grand am gt1.
The other day it was raining and pretty dark out, so my mother went to put on her rear winsheild wiper and it didnt work, and all the windows and the sun roof do not work and the lamp lights overhead do not work either. So i took a look at the fuse box on the driver side and there was no blown fuse. Please if anyone can help me out that would be great. I am part of a pontiac forum so I know about the SEARCH button, but i really didnt find anything that would help me out.

Thanks,

ELI

Welcome to the forum

This forum is different than the GM forum, we dont utilize crystal *****.

If you are looking for an intelligent answer, you must give up the details of the vehicle, like yr, model... mom's Explorer just doesn't cut it...!

I'm pretty sure I said it was a 97 Explorer, it is the V8 model. I have checked the fuses and there was nothing that was blown. The front wipers work fine, the console lights work fine as well. I'm not sure what the problems are.
Thanks,
ELI

There is one fuse common to all circuits you mention, fuse 26 (10 amp mini) in the Instrument Panel fuse panel. Double check that fuse and make sure it has power to it - it should have power to it at all times.

Common to the power windows and the courtesy lights is fuse 4 (30A maxi) in the Power Distribution Box, but that fuse is not shared with the rear wiper.

I should add that these fuse mappings are from the 1998 factory service manual which I would expect to be the same as your 1997, but I don't guarantee it.
